1.5-4lb is what it can be set to with no farther adjustmentsCan u get the “primary” down to 1.5-2.0 lbs on a custom action like a Stiller or Kelby?
I really don’t want under a 2 lb trigger with this build since my son will be using it. Also more for hunting/plinking.
Ok, I read something about heavier firing pin spring impacts pull weight so wasn’t sure what customs actions would have that?1.5-4lb is what it can be set to with no farther adjustments

I try to read all of the stories about Jewell triggers both good and bad. This is a story about 1 of the 2 original triggers that I have remaining from PD rifles dating back into early 2000. I had 16 rifles that I carried 8 each trip both early and late in the summer, for 8 yrs. None of those triggers ever malfunctioned, and none of those triggers were ever cleaned w/anything, not even lighter fluid.
About 2wks ago, I was fireforming brass, holding the rifle at waist level firing into the ground. I fired 48 slow paced shots,
dropping the brass into a box. When I got home, I found that I had 6 cases w/pierced primers. I know what your thinking, and I thought the very same, they are supposed to break, but this Jewell did not fail. Lucky, maybe ???
The point I am trying to make, a Jewell trigger is no more prone to failure in hunting rifle conditions, than the 700 factory trigger or for that matter any other aftermarket trigger.
If you are on the fence about what trigger to buy, just consider the above facts, before you make your decision. LDS
My life actually got easier when i realized i didnt need a 1oz trigger. Every brand out there works better at 4-5oz and ive found you wont do anything but help your groups. Triggers are way more consistent too once i got a gage thatll reliably measure fractions of an ounce
Sorry, you will have to contact the factory on that. 512-353-2999Larry, can you get me the piece that might brake if a primer is pierced? If so, how much?
Thanks Jim
I have a Jewel HVR on my factory class 308 and TT Diamond on my custom Rem 700 6mmBRA. From day one, the TT Diamond has given me nothing but problems with light primer strikes. The Jewel has been on the 308 for several years without ANY maintenance, not even a simple lighter fluid flush. My first TT Diamond was returned to TT after it locked up the action several rounds after a pierced primer. I could not open the bolt; required removal of the trigger assembly to get the action open. Trigger Tech was great with supplying a replacement trigger in short order. I continued to have issues with the TT Diamond on my factory Remington 700 action, so returned it. Looks like I'll have a second Jewel trigger shortly.
In support of Trigger Tech, I have replaced all my factory Remington 700 triggers with the TT Primary trigger and very pleased. My Benchrest rifle is currently wearing a spare TT Primary trigger until I can get a Jewel purchased/installed.
I talked with TT support about that. They said that they do not recommend using the TT Diamond 700 with factory remington actions. It was 'if you have a factory remington action, do not use the Diamond 700 - period" type of response.(for cloned actions only)
